System Start

The Tasks menu on the hand controller is grayed out during startup, which means that it is unavailable until the system start is completed.

During the system start, the following occurs:

  1. The pump and the tensioner start and establish the communication with the hand controller.

  2. If the firmware version of the pump or the tensioner is not compatible with the software version of the hand controller, the firmware version will be updated to a compatible version. This process can be observed on the LED of the tensioner, which is blue during the firmware compatibility check and the possible update process. When the tensioners status LED has stopped blinking and is steady white the tensioner has established connection with the hand controller.

    If the firmware of the pump or tensioner is not what the hand controller expects the event 2516 “Unexpected Pump or Tensioner firmware version detected, restart system. If the problem persists, the system may be possible to run, but carefully observe any unexpected behaviour." is triggered. In case any reported firmware is on the hand controller’s list of incompatible firmware versions the hand controller emits event 2617 “Incompatible Pump or Tensioner firmware version, restart system. The system cannot run”. In case of incompatible firmware the hand controller will not activate Home->Tasks. In both cases restart the system and let the unit that failed to update have another go.

The hand controller Name can be replaced in the IAM, see the section Intelligent Application Module.
